"Exactly" what I'd like to do is capture images from my digital camera
as monochrome HGR (using a computereyes card) and then convert the HGR
to GIFF so it can be uploaded to a website without having to use
another computer. The images would be intended for viewing on modern
systems with graphical web browsers, so I'm not really all that worried
about the size of the resultant file... it seems that skipping the
compression part would drastically simplify the process.
